I am a transdisciplinary artist and creative researcher based in Boston especially interested in process at the intersection of art/science and auto-ethnographic inquiry. Though most of my formal education and training has been in science and I work as a Technical Associate studying protein architecture in a Biochemistry lab at MIT, to balance more commitment towards art, I recently went back to school and completed a creative practice based MFA through the Transart Institute@LJMU. Experimenting with poetry, light and nature as collaborative mediums to articulate themes of landscape, memory, absence, loss, agnotology, syncretic transfer, language, time, (dis)obsolescence and (re)generative materiality through multiple modalities. My artistic practice has been materializing through alternative photo/film processing, botanical dyeing and printing, microscopy, microbial painting, textile/fiber arts, embroidered circuits, poem sculptures and time-based media installation.

I enjoy working with plants for color as well as applying their chemistry for photographic development processes. In particular, inspired by Binh Danh’s pioneering work as well as Yago de Orbe Klingenberg, Almudena Romero and Accra Schepp, I have been trying my own hand at chlorophyll printing with leaves from the cherry blossom trees by my apartment. 

Currently I have a work being shown in the Fay Chandler Emerging Art Exhibit at the Boston City Hall and additional works will be included in Still as the world is never Still @Canal Gallery in Cambridge, MA which opens in mid-January.
